Currently, the hottest player in the world, Jeev Milkha Singh breaks yet another barrier as he becomes the first Indian to break into top 50. The season ending victory at Golf Nippon Series JT Cup in Japan catapults him to WGR of 47.  Daniel Chopra also improves his ranking by 2 places by finishing T12 in Blue Chip New Zealand Open. He has now WGR of 144.

Belated congratulations to Jeev for scaling new heights regularly through the past three months. He has done us very proud indeed this year -- and of course we shouldn't forget that he has really been the pioneer of Indian golf on the international stage, by moving from the APGA to the EPGA almost a decade ago, before the injury set him back about five years ago.

If we have Vijay Singh on this list, perhaps we should include Dinesh Chand (his Fijian compatriot) as well.

Daniel Chopra and Gaurav Ghei have hit a new high in their worl rankings. Ghei is ready to break into top 200 - hopefully next week. Way to go Ghei! Daniel is looking for breaking into top 100. A big performance like top 5 may bring him inside top 100. Go Daniel! Jeev maintain himself in top 50, but he soon needs a good performance to keep himself there. Similarly, Jyoti must hit big to keep himself in top 100.

As expected, Jyoti Randhawa and Gaurav Ghei have hit a new personal best mark in world rankings. Gaurav Ghei also broke into top 200 for the first time. So once again we have 6 players that we follow in top 200. Previously, Arjun Atwal use to be in this group, but right now he is missing out. Hopefully he'll make a strong come back soon.

Golf World Rankings-May,07: Jeev(57) Jyoti(78) Daniel(127) Ghei(132) Shiv(199)

Post by ajay »

Jyoti missed a good opportunity to improve his ranking and reach new heights as he made a double bogey on last hole and finished in twenties instead of just outside top 10. The good news came from Gaurav Ghei who actually must be little disappointed in not having won the Macau Open. But his sole 3rd finished propelled him to new heights this week. Gaurav Ghei has an advantage as his count of tournament is low at 44. So any good result boosts his ranking. Like Daniel Chopra, Gaurav Ghei also has a chance to break in top 100 soon. The good performances also saw Digvijay Singh, Gurbaaz Mann reach their best ever ranking in golf. Here is the ranking table:

Updating the rankings after a long time. For a while there was only a downward movement in the rankings and therefore nothing worth posting. With Jyoti winning last week, I thought its time to update this thread. Jyoti once again comes back into top 100. But most of the players are well below their best. Jeev still heads the list of India golfers in ranking. But Jyoti has narrowed the gap and he is only 15 position behind him.

Jyoti recently made a remark that he is ready for PGA and looking forward to play regularly there. But it is for sure that we won't see him in qualifiers. It is obvious that he is seeking to emulate what Jeev did last year, i.e., get into top 50 and get chance to play number of PGA tour events. If he gets some good results before the end of the year, it is possible for him. A good thing going for Jyoti is that he has very low number of total tournaments (54) for averaging the points. So if he gets good results, his average pts will increase rapidly and he can climb up the ranking charts quickly. Good luck Jyoti!

Big movers from last time I put this ranking in this thread are Gaganjeet Bhullar who was unranked and not even in the list, Harmeet Kahlon, who had been at the end of Indian ranked player list for a while and in two weeks he would have becom unranked, and ofcourse Daniel Chopra who had been slipping for a while.

Jyoti at 77 is very near to his personal best of 74 once again, just 3 places behind. A good result this week can see him beat his personal record. Gaganjeet Bhullar who is not playing any regular tour this year, has also reached his personal best after a good performance in SAIL open. Gaganjeet has played only 11 tournaments so far. Digvijay and SSP chowrasia are also near their personal best that they achieved two and three weeks back. So these 4 golfers can easily cross their best this week. Arjun is also rapidly climbing up in the rankings.

Here is the latest ranking list for Indian players as of Feb 25,08
